Our Calling
Jesus Christ calls us and empowers us through the Holy Spirit to inspire those called to the vocation of marriage. Since marriage touches every fabric of creation, we respond to the urgent need for a solid formation and accompaniment of those called to marriage with enthusiasm and commitment. Our calling also extends to Continuing Ministry Formation, tailored for priests, deacons, ministers, religious, seminarians, diocesan, and parish volunteers on marriage catechumenate framework for adequate engagement in the marriage ministry.
Marriage Catechumenate Framework
The Marriage Catechumenate is anchored on four fundamental elements: Discernment, Formation, Accompaniment, and Advocacy.
Discernment
Discernment guides us beyond self-reflection and into the exploration of the purpose and vision behind our creation. It is a divine gift from the Holy Spirit, directing us toward the profound revelation of our calling and empowering us to respond to it adequately.
Formation
Formation represents both a process and a journey, inviting us to open our hearts to a more profound connection with God and the unfolding of our vocation.
Accompaniment
Accompaniment involves moving at the rhythm of another individual, embodying the essence of a supportive friend. It signifies the presence of someone who doesn’t dictate the path but extends assistance to enhance the journey.
Advocacy
Advocating for understanding marriage as a vocation is crucial. The Church plays a pivotal role in assisting the domestic church in understanding its societal impact and staying true to its divine calling.
The Formation Stages, Courses and the Pastoral Strategies
Our scope of marriage catechumenate framework springs from Familaris Consortio no 66 which considers marriage preparation a gradual and continuous process accumulating in four stages: remote, proximate, immediate, and pastoral accompaniment for married couples at all stages.
